In today’s article, I’m diving into some of my top Year 2 targets and fades from a dynasty fantasy football perspective, focusing on players from the 2024 NFL Draft class. To evaluate how my views stack up against the market, I compared my dynasty rankings on FantasyPros with the Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR). The results were eye-opening for me. There are several players I didn’t realize I was significantly higher or lower on until I saw the data. Hopefully, these insights will help guide your trade strategy as we head deeper into the offseason. Let’s dive into my top Year 2 fantasy football targets.

Dynasty Players to Target (Fantasy Football)
Fantasy Football Players to Target
Bo Nix (QB – DEN) | My Rank: QB7 | ECR: QB11
The Bo Nix hate continues in the dynasty community despite the young man putting together one of the best rookie seasons in NFL history. He averaged nearly 20 fantasy points per game in 2024, including 3.9 points per game on the ground. I’ve seen all I need to see.
Rookie QBs in NFL history with 3,500+ pass yards, 400+ rush yards, 29+ pass TDs
1. Bo Nix
End of list.
5th most fantasy points for a rookie QB, behind only Cam Newton, Jayden Daniels, Justin Herbert, RG3

Drake Maye (QB – NE) | My Rank: QB6 | ECR: QB10
I think if we’re looking ahead two years from today, there’s a real chance the only quarterback we view higher than Drake Maye from a dynasty perspective is Jayden Daniels. In the games where Maye played more than a third of the snaps, he averaged over 16 fantasy points per game as a rookie. This was with virtually no offensive line and zero receiving weapons. Things are only going to improve from here. Buy aggressively.
Troy Franklin (WR – DEN) | My Rank: WR71 | ECR: WR90
I was a notable Troy Franklin bull this time last year, but after a wildly disappointing rookie season, I nuked him in my rankings and figured I was about even with the market on him. Clearly, that’s not the case, as I have Franklin 19 positional spots ahead of ECR. Yes, Franklin was bad in Year 1, but his prospect profile coming out of Oregon was excellent, and there’s a non-zero chance this guy is Bo Nix’s WR1 in 2025. They have a rapport dating back to college, after all.
Xavier Worthy (WR – KC) | My Rank: WR21 | ECR: WR26
Worthy was another player I didn’t think of myself as particularly bullish on prior to this exercise, but I’m well ahead of ECR. I think a good percentage of the dynasty community views Worthy solely as a gadget guy, but he proved in the latter half of the season he’s much more than this. From Week 15 through the Superbowl (excluding Week 18, when the starters sat), Worthy averaged 8.7 targets, 6.7 receptions, 89.2 scrimmage yards, and one touchdown per game. That’s 21.6 PPR points per game.
Ben Sinnott (TE – WAS) | My Rank: TE27 | ECR: TE33
Washington decided to pour cold water on the Ben Sinnott breakout season in 2025 by signing Zach Ertz for one more year, but if you have patience, he’s a pretty cheap trade target with potential low-end TE1 upside down the line. I really liked Sinnott’s prospect profile coming into the NFL, and I’m not willing to throw in the towel yet. Sometimes, it just takes a few years for tight ends to get fully acclimated. They have a lot to learn, both as blockers and receivers.
